SIaughterinY Elk.

Nothing has created greater Indignation
for many months in this community than
the news that local pot-hunter" has
been offering for sale the meat of an elk.
There seems to be an utter disregard of the
law on the part of those following this
calling, and this last act is another ex-
ample of the many outrages against the
game laws of this State that have been for
years openly perpetrated in this county.
Antelope meat has been sold in Bakersfield
every winter for the past ten years. Deer
meat is offered for sale in every town in the
county just the same in as out of the sea-
son, with no attempt at secrecy. Elk jerky
has been hawked about the streets of
Bakersfield and Sumner by cheeky and
seedy peddlers. No hunter conceals the
fact that he is killing deer for their hides
when he i. going into the business. There
is no law in the State that is so great farce
as its game laws. Every year, months
before the opening of the Legislature,
statistics are carefully made up from the
reports of those interested in the different
counties in the preservation of game they
are thoroughly digestei by committees
who have the good of the cause at heart,
only to be repeatedly broken by class OF
men who never have anything to show for
their transgressions. From sporting
standpoint there is no more credit in kill
ing an elk in the Buena Vista hills than
there would be in shooting steer belong
ing to Miller & Lux, among whose cattle
they run. The little band there, which is
the last of its kind in this State, waters
every day within sight of the Buena Vista
farm buildings, and are as carefully
watched by Mr.. Briggs and his employees
as the cattle under his charge. 1t is a
satisfaction to know that this outrage has
been reported to the State Sporting Asso-
citation and that it will probably cost the
law-breaker more than the combined
earnings from all his acts of this kind

The Indian Green Corn Dance.

The great religious service of the year is
known as the "buskin season" or green
corn dance. Not an Indian eats a grain Of
corn until after the celebration. The men
prepare for this by system of purifca-
ton, eating of bitter herbs and taking med
icine. This sometimes makes them very
sick, but it is always rigidly adhered to.
On certain appointed day all the tribes
gather together in one place, and sacri-
flee of thanksgiving is offered to the Great
Father in the burning of fish, the heart
of deer and an ear of corn. Then the
dance begins. There are separate dances
for the men and the women, and another
dance is participated in by all. In the
last dance the inner circle is for women,
the next for men, and the outer one for
strangers. These lines are strictly watched
and any unwary stranger, who, in his curl
osity, oversteps the line, is Immediately
besieged until he pays one dollar or an
equivalent. The lance is kept up during
the entire day, and at night, tired and
happy, all return to their home.-Kansos
